Coast Guard Station Jonesport, located in Jonesport, Maine, has played a vital role in maritime safety and security along the Downeast Maine coastline. Established in 1960, the station was built to replace several historic life-saving stations in the region, consolidating their missions of search and rescue, law enforcement, and environmental protection. Over the decades, Coast Guard Station Jonesport has responded to numerous emergencies, including vessel groundings, medical evacuations, and severe weather incidents in the challenging waters of the Gulf of Maine. The station remains a critical asset for the U.S. Coast Guard, supporting both local fishing communities and the broader maritime interests of the United States.
